In the Preamble section of the Declaration of Independence, the Founding Fathers stated why they were issuing the Declaration of Independence. The Founding Fathers believed that when a group of people is going to break free from another government and declare its independence, they should tell the world why they are doing this.
The Founding Fathers stated in the document that all people have certain rights that cannot be taken away by anybody or by any group. These rights include the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. When a government begins to abuse its powers by taking away the rights of the people, the people have no choice but to get rid of the government. In the Declaration of Independence, the Founding Fathers listed all of the grievances that the people had against the King of England. This section is the longest section of the document.
Thus, the Founding Fathers wanted the world to know why the colonists were declaring their independence from Great Britain.
